There was quite a commotion when the international president was unable to hold the rooster and the bird flew around the banquet hall looking for a safe place to light. Taylor is wearing a light colored suit, shirt and necktie. Jordan is wearing a dark blazer and necktie and light colored shirt and trousers. Jordan also has a handkerchief in his left breast pocket. An unidentified man is sitting in the left corner of the portrait. An United States flag is on a pole in the far right of the portrait.
